GPS (Global Positioning System) is a feature that allows a phone to determine its location by receiving signals from satellites. A maps application relies on GPS to provide accurate directions and navigation. If GPS is turned off or not working properly, the maps application may not function as expected.
The other options are not relevant to the issue. Airplane mode is a setting that disables all wireless communication on a phone, including cellular, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and GPS. However, since the representative runs a speed test and gets ~10Mbps in both directions, it means that airplane mode is not enabled. PRL (Preferred Roaming List) is a database that contains information about the cellular towers and networks that a phone can connect to. Updating the PRL can improve the phone's signal strength and coverage, but it does not affect the maps application. LTE (Long Term Evolution) is a standard for high-speed wireless communication on mobile devices. It is related to the cellular data speed and quality, but not to the maps application.
To troubleshoot the issue, the technician should check the GPS settings on the phone and make sure that it is turned on and has a clear view of the sky. The technician should also verify that the maps application has permission to access the GPS location. If the problem persists, the technician may suggest resetting the network settings, updating the phone's software, or contacting the maps application's support team.

The correct answer is A. Toner probe.
A toner probe is an electronic test instrument that can help trace wires and locate the port where a printer is connected on a patch panel. A toner probe consists of two parts: a tone generator and a tone detector. The tone generator sends a signal through the cable, and the tone detector picks up the signal at the other end. By using a toner probe, a technician can identify which port on the patch panel corresponds to the printer cable.
A loopback plug is a device that can test the functionality of a network port by sending and receiving signals from the same port. A loopback plug is not useful for locating ports on a patch panel.
A cable tester is a device that can verify the integrity and continuity of a cable by checking for open, short, or miswired connections. A cable tester can also measure the length and resistance of a cable. A cable tester is not useful for locating ports on a patch panel.
A Wi-Fi analyzer is a software or hardware tool that can monitor and analyze wireless networks by scanning for available channels, signal strength, security settings, and other parameters. A Wi-Fi analyzer is not useful for locating ports on a patch panel.

Port 20 is used for FTP data transfer (along with port 21 for control), so enabling this port is required. Ports 23, 53, and 68 are unrelated to FTP functionality, as they correspond to Telnet, DNS, and DHCP respectively. CompTIA A+ Core 1 objectives outline the importance of knowing standard port numbers for network services.

A failing power supply can cause random system crashes and degraded performance as it struggles to maintain a consistent voltage, especially as the system demands increase over time. The CMOS battery only affects system time and settings, while the video card typically causes display issues rather than system-wide crashes. System memory issues often result in specific errors or performance issues rather than gradual slowdowns. CompTIA A+ Core 1 objectives highlight troubleshooting power supply issues as part of hardware and system maintenance.
